Abuse 2.0 added soundcard support patch by RmM

Okay, copy these files into your Abuse 2.0 directory,
both shareware and complete versions are fine.
Overwrite all you want, this patch has the file backed up anyway.
Run SETUP, fiddle the configurations to an acceptable combo,
and start blasting those damned aliens to chunky bits.
If you have GUS, you have to load LOADPATS before everything else.
I included it here. Type LOADPATS to run it, but if you are like me, type
LOADPATS -8 -F22 to get as many instruments as possible. =)

I can't see why the hell did Crack dot Com remove a lot of soundcards.
FM synthesis support was completely removed, and the great GUS soundcard too,
and a lot of other cards I've personally never heard about. =)
Hmm, maybe the game publisher, the name escapes me at the moment,
made a deal with Creative Labs or something, much the way Origin with Intel.
As a result, Abuse 2.0 supported only SB cards, this Ensoniq I don't know,
and only General Midi as far as music is concerned.
(When talking GUS, MegaEM is only so good to a certain point.)

Not only the soundcard support was f.cked up in 2.0,
the story was also made a lot stupider.
Illegal genetic experiments my ass.

Ok, now go play.

This patch is a third party patch to Abuse,
which means that if you go ask Crack.Com about it,
they will deny all knowledge of this patch whatsoever.
But please, bug them anyway. =)

If you, for some mind-twisting, sick reason, decide that
you want the pathetic Blasterizing sound support back,
well, copy SETUP.BAK into SETUP.INI, but WHY SHOULD YOU?
In case you want to remove this patch,
do that renaming thingy up there, and then delete these files :
SETUP.BAK, DRUM.BNK, MELODY.BNK, LOADPATS.EXE, PATCHES.INI,
READTHIS.TXT and FILE_ID.DIZ !

Cya!
